Although there is a "report item" link with every listing, you have to jump through a lot of drop down boxes and can not sometimes find your violation.
Ebay prefers you to use this simple report form for coins or currency. It requires only two things - the item number and the violation in your own words. You can use one form to report up to ten listings, separated by a comma and a space. In addition it is does to and is reviewed by an ebay employee familiar with coin listing requirements:

<< <i>just curious of what method you guys use for determining if a coin should or should not be on ebay, i had several of mine pulled one day after a potential buyer claimed one of my listings was graded improperly ... and i never attatch even a hint of a grade to my auctions, what i mean is do you offer to pay the re-list fees if you are wrong ? or do you just take pride in getting people's auctions ended ? >>
Some methods/reasons (not an exhaustive list):
-Fake Slabs.
-Numerical grade assertions on raw coins.
-Non-eBay approved "TPG's".
-Blatant misrepresentation with the obvious intent to defraud - i.e. Photoshopped photos.
-Hijacked accounts.
-Other failures to follow eBay T.O.S.
The actions of many on this board have saved a lot of people a lot of hardship, and have actually helped some eBay sellers learn to do better.
I don't know that all the folks here have a particular motivation to just mess with innocent eBay sellers - usually it's crap that is a little more blatant that raises the collective ire of the board membership. And believe me, there are plenty of folks not associated with this board who will nit-pick auctions...

All listings must conform to ebay guidelines. Coins must also meet ebay's additional guidelines for coins:
Stamps, currency, and coins policy
Only ebay or the seller can end a listing early. Reports of violation are reviewed by ebay and ebay makes the determination. Unfortunately they do not always inform the seller of the specific reason. If you have a listing pulled by ebay and they are not clear as to why, you should call them and discuss.
I take pride in the fact that policy violations that I report have hopefuly helped to make ebay a better marketplace. Ebay depends heavily upon it's users to bring violations to their attention.
